The Hobbit Hole XXIV - Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
Please see our Hobbit Hole Troop Support project blog! ^

Posted on 08/24/2005 9:50:25 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Evenin' folkses... :-) [sip]

Well... I promise not to pollute the hobbit hole any more by dragging OTH (Other Than Hobbitty) issues in here. I'm sorry that I did that this week. :-(

We don't have to avoid the subject altogether, then we'd have nothing to talk about when this is so much on all our minds... I just wanted us to be above all else, more friendly than everywhere else on the forum lately.

ecurbh and I are goin' out now, for a bit... we'll be back later :~D

I think we'd like to come to the beach house this weekend for a visit.... you know if there's any conflicting plans there?

I'm on vacation next week. What time should I get there? *grin*

Evenin' everyone!

Worked late, but got everything finished up for the folks who'll cover me next week. I'm a bit nervous because my new payroll partner is fairly new herself and some of my clients can get vicious.

But I went over every account that needed to be processed next week and she seems pretty confident with it, so I can actually ~relax~ on vacation.

A novel concept, donchathink? ;-D
